The project involved the construction of a 16-storey research and development facility. Laboratories support genetic, protein and human health research, regenerative medicine, and medical technology innovation and included a 25,000 sq. ft. vivarium.

Specialist areas include a nuclear magnetic resonance suite, mass spectrometry, tissue engineering, flow cytometry, robotics and biomedical engineering, medicinal chemistry, and imaging suites.

Each research area is extendable and designed to accommodate expanded research programs or new areas of investigation.
